Content 
According to RFC-6265 (which also references RFC-2616 to define "tokens"), the space character (and whitespace in general) is not valid in cookie-names or cookie-values.

RFC-6265: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6265#section-4.1.1
RFC-2616: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2616#section-2.2

I think it's reasonable for Python to quietly throw away malformed NAME=VALUE pairs since web browsers are likely doing the same.
